ASIMO's fans have the opportunity to win a trip to meet ASIMO at its
Southern California home at Disneyland in a new social media contest,
"Meet ASIMO," that begins today on Facebook. Honda
created the contest to honor ASIMO's growing and passionate online fan
base that can participate by completing a series of challenges that
includes correctly answering trivia questions and briefly explaining why
they love ASIMO.
ASIMO, which stands for Advanced
Step in Innovative Mobility, was designed to someday assist people in
their daily lives and currently plays a valuable role globally in
encouraging and inspiring young people who are interested in math and
science. While ASIMO travels the world for demonstrations at various
events, its largest daily audience is online, where ASIMO's social media
presence engages fans who may not have the opportunity to see ASIMO in
person.
ASIMO currently is installed in Disneyland's "Innoventions" attraction where the Say 'Hello' to Honda's ASIMO
live demonstration takes place several times daily in the Honda ASIMO
Theater. The program gives visitors a glimpse into a future when
humanoid robots, such as ASIMO, could assist people in their homes.
The "Meet ASIMO" contest, which engages ASIMO's new and existing fans
online through Facebook, runs from Feb. 11 - March 7. The contest asks
participants to submit two photos with "Printable ASIMO," answer five
trivia questions about ASIMO and explain why they love the world's most
advanced humanoid robot. Once the submission period closes on February
25, 25 finalists will be selected based on creativity and overall ASIMO
spirit. Then the general Facebook public will vote to determine the
winner. The contest winner will be awarded a four-person, three-night
stay at The Disneyland Resort along with an exclusive opportunity to
meet ASIMO after one of its shows. The contest is open only to U.S.
residents, age eighteen and older. To learn more about the contest and
